Please give me true answer this financial accounting question

4. Explain what the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is and calculate and explain the result of the CAPM based on the following data. a. Expected Return: 8% b. Risk-free rate: 4% c. Beta of the investment: 1.2 ER=Rf+B(ERm - Rf) where: ER = expected return of investment Rf risk-free rate B;= beta of the investment - (ERm - Rf) = market risk premium

which of the following statement is true>? 1. return on equity is the ratio of total assets to total net income 2. one must know the discount rate to compute the npv of a project but one can compute the IRR without referring to the discount rate.  3. there will always be one IRR regardless of cash flows 4. one must know the discount rate to compute the IRR of a project but one can compute the NPV without referring to the discount rate 5. payback accounts for time value of money

What is the expected return of a portfolio of two risky assets if the expected return E(Ri), standard deviation (SDi), covariance (COVij), and asset weight (Wi) are as shown below? Asset (A) E(R₂) = 25% SDA = 18% WA = 0.75 COVA, B = -0.0009 Select one: A. 13.65% B. 20 U ODN 20.0% C. 18.64% D. 22.5% Asset (B) E(R₂) = 15% SDB = 11% WB = 0.25

Please show all the steps

The average return, standard deviation, and beta for Fund A is given below along with data for the S&P 500 Index. Fund Average Return Standard Deviation Beta A 25.7% 29% 1.3 S&P 500 17.9% 20% 1 Risk-free 3.8%     Calculate the M2 measure of performance for Fund A. Use the correct sign if the answer is negative!  Example: -1.23

In the following exercise, separate the investments according to the type of Keynesian demand they are: Transactions (0% to 5%), Precautionary (6% to 9%), and Speculative demand (greater than 10%). Investment in each category has the same risk. So you want to invest in the highest return for the same risk. Take each demand type and choose the highest return and put that amount into the investment. For example, if Bond fund A has a return of 4% and Fund B has a return of 5%, they have the same risk, so you would put $70 into bond fund B.       You have the following investments Opportunities ad returns. Fidelity Bonds                                       11% Fidelity Magellan                                    9% Putman Bonds one                                4% Putman bonds Two                            12% Growth Stock One                               15% Growth and Income                             8% Income Fund                                           3% Putman Growth…

MC 1: If two fund separation holds, identify the correct statements for the optimal complete portfolio and the maximum Sharpe ratio portfolio (MSRP): I. The two portfolios have the same Sharpe ratio. II. When y* equals 1, the two portfolios are identical. II. Risk aversion affects the MSRP but not the optimal complete portfolio. IV. The MSRP contains the risk-free asset. Select one: O a. I, II, and III. O b. I and II. O c. I, II, and IV. O d. All of the above. O e.I only.

Manipulating CAPM Use the basic equation for the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) to work each of the following problems. a. Find the required return for an asset with a beta of 1.59 when the risk-free rate and market return are 7% and 12%, respectively. b. Find the risk-free rate for a firm with a required return of 10.925% and a beta of 0.84 when the market return is 12%. c. Find the market return for an asset with a required return of 9.417% and a beta of 0.31 when the risk-free rate is 8%. d. Find the beta for an asset with a required return of 19.559% when the risk-free rate and market return are 10% and 17.9%, respectively. a. The required return for an asset with a beta of 1.59 when the risk-free rate and market return are 7% and 12%, respectively, is %. (Round to two decimal places.) b. The risk-free rate for a firm with a required return of 10.925% and a beta of 0.84 when the market return is 12% is %. (Round to two decimal places.) c. The market return for an asset with a…
